I've been abandoned before - a parent who left, a friend who betrayed, a church that rejected me. The promise 'I will never leave you' is almost impossible for me to believe.
But I'm learning that belief isn't about feeling it. It's about standing on the promise even when it contradicts my experience. Even when I feel alone, the reality is I'm not. Even when people leave, God doesn't. That's not something I feel. That's something I choose to believe and then discover gradually that it's actually true.
It's the slowest healing - letting that promise actually sink in and reshape my whole sense of security. But it's happening.
